Radeon HD 5670 was announced on 14th of January and was at the time the most affordable DirectX 11-supporting graphics card. If you’re looking for an affordable DirectX 11 graphics card, know that the situation hasn’t changed much as NVIDIA’s sub-€250 DirectX 11 offer is nowhere to be seen. AMD made sure that its offer is nicely filled out and is now reaping the rewards, as the aforementioned price segment packs a really nice offer.
